Waypoint Export Option for SMS Tracking

The default export format for SMS locators is as a track. While this is a useful way to easily see where someone has been, having access to the waypoints used to draw the track would be very useful for SAR operations. My request would be to keep the current input format as is for SMS locators, however, it would be great if all the individual points could be exported into a single folder (for easy toggle on/off) - as this could get busy if, for example, someone keeps their browser open for an extended period of time (which doesn't happen often in experience). Specifically, it would be very useful if points exported with the timestamp data for the specific point. On several instances we've had to download track and convert them to text files in order to extract individual points and timestamps, particular to determine a direction of travel.

The current SMS tracking feature is very useful, however, if you are not watching the track in realtime, it can sometimes be difficult to establish a direction of travel. We've discovered it is helpful to change the style to an arrowed line - however, this is sometimes sub-optimal, especially if points are spread out over long periods of time. Recently, we've had someone keep eyes on the map constantly, and when a new point appears, add a new marker on the location, but with a timestamp of when the point appears. This allows us to understand direction and speed of travel overtime, which has been very useful when directing resources to intercept subjects or determining how effective someone might be at performing a self-rescue.

The challenge with the method described above is that is fairly time consuming, and requires someone either monitor the track continuously, or have the skillset to export the track and extract point and timestamp data efficiently. The hope would be a feature to allow users to quickly view the points that make up the line, and the associated timestamp, as this information has been very useful on numerous incidents our team has managed.

Thanks for considering!
